India will not build the next big AI company. We don't need to. The answer lies in this pyramid: Maslow's hierarchy explains human motivation through five levels: 1️⃣ Physiological Needs: Food, water, shelter 2️⃣ Safety Needs: Security, employment, resources 3️⃣ Love and Belonging: Relationships, community 4️⃣ Esteem: Respect, recognition 5️⃣ Self-Actualization: Personal growth, creativity 🇮🇳 India is currently between levels 2 & 3. The immediate needs revolve around ensuring security, improving resource access & building communities. This is why we see a surge in food delivery services, financial products & social connectivity problems. 🚀 Companies Thriving in India's Market: You'll see Indian entrepreneurs solving real, immediate problems that resonate with the majority of the population. These include: 💰 Fintech: eg. UPI. Disrupting traditional payment systems like MasterCard & Visa. 🍕 Food Delivery: startups like Zomato & Swiggy, ensuring access to meals. 💸 Insurance & Wealth: brands like Policybazaar.com & Zerodha, providing financial security & investment opportunities. 👕 Consumer Goods: brands like Apple and Zudio, catering to the growing aspiration. 🔮 The Future of India's Economy As India progresses from $2,500 → $4,000 per capita GDP, spending patterns will shift. People will allocate more money to discretionary & aspirational products. This will lead to the rise of new consumer brands and services. 💡 AI is not the masses need today India's strength lies in solving the pressing, everyday challenges of its population. As the core problem statements change, entrepreneurs will rush to solve those. ✨ But, that being said India is a continent masquerading as a country. So, while the mass solves for levels 2 & 3, there will be pockets which need level 4 & 5 solutions. And, massive kudos to founders building the next generation of tech from India. ⭐️ This was a snippet Aviral goes extremely deep into India's $10 Trillion opportunity on the latest episode of the GrowthX® Inner Circle w/ Abhishek.

A striking 72% of global leading CEOs are betting on generative AI to outpace their competitors. That’s why I’m all in on mastering this game-changing technology. 💪💡 I’m thrilled to share that I’ve recently earned the "𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰" certification in collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology & Indian Institute of Management Mumbai (NITIE). What an eye-opening journey it’s been! This certification has significantly contributed to my professional growth & deepened my understanding of how #generativeAI is transforming the business world. Looking back on my 16-year #career, I’ve realised how crucial it is to stay updated with technological advancements. The insights I gained from this course have only strengthened my belief that in today's rapidly evolving #business landscape, AI is no longer an option; it's a necessity. Founder of Paytm, Vijay Shekhar Sharma’s recent remark, "AI should be the basic necessity to serve Indian citizens at scale, & India should build its own AI," resonates deeply with me. It highlights AI’s potential to drive #innovation & efficiency across sectors, making services more accessible & effective for everyone. In India’s rapidly growing #fintech & #retail sectors, AI’s impact is already being felt. For fintech, AI is enhancing fraud detection, streamlining customer service with chatbots, and offering personalized financial advice, making banking safer and more accessible. In retail, AI is transforming the customer experience through tailored recommendations, dynamic pricing, & smarter inventory & supply chain #management. As we move from dreaming about AI to implementing it in practical, meaningful ways, the possibilities are truly exciting. In my #leadership role, understanding these AI advancements is more important than ever. GenAI is a transformative force that can refine decision-making, streamline operations, & foster #creativity. By integrating AI into our strategies, we can better meet our customers’ needs and stay ahead in a competitive market. I’m genuinely excited about the potential AI holds for businesses & society. The more we embrace these cutting-edge technologies, the better equipped we’ll tackle the challenges ahead. #startups #entrepreneurship #tech #automation #future

With SoftBank already backing major Indian unicorns like Ola OYO and Blinkit this signals a renewed confidence in India’s tech ecosystem. Son’s bullish outlook comes as #SoftBank rebounds with a $7.7 billion net profit in Q3 2024, thanks to rising IPOs in the Indian market and strategic exits from Vision Fund investments. With India at the center of the generative AI boom, could this be the decade where India leads the #global AI #semiconductor race?

In a quiet apartment in the heart of Bengaluru, Arun Menon, a young professional in his early thirties, begins his day not by tapping away on his smartphone but by simply speaking. “Turn on the lights,” he says, and the room brightens.

💭 I often wonder: Why do we, as Indians, still hesitate to break out of conventional norms when we have the potential to redefine them entirely? Look around—India is no longer just following trends. We’re building rockets that reach Mars in their first attempt. We’re creating startups that challenge global giants.

It’s transforming industries, from legal and healthcare to agriculture and education. And yet, I see so many bright minds hesitating to step into this arena, missing the chance to innovate, to lead, to disrupt. Here’s the truth: 💡 Innovation isn’t just about technology—it’s about using AI to solve real-world problems faster. 🚀 Entrepreneurship isn’t just about starting a business—it’s about building AI-driven ecosystems. 🌐 Technology isn’t just a tool—it’s the foundation of India’s next economic leap. For those still on the fence: The possibilities with AI are endless. 🔹 For the economy: AI-driven startups can create jobs and save billions in inefficiencies. 🔹 For reputation: Imagine India leading the way in ethical, impactful AI applications. 🔹 For growth: AI levels the playing field—it’s a leap, not just a step forward.
